Testimonials

"We have used FPA for over 14 years. We have had opportunities to change to other systems but have never seen anything that would meet our needs like FPA does. We have expanded the number of locations in the past few years and have been pleased with the support we have received from Automated Accounting in setting up all of the new yards. Technical support is prompt and very knowledgeable. Overall, I would recommend FPA to anyone in need of procurement software."Jimmy McLeod, CFO Beasley Forest Products, Inc."I have been working in the FPA System for 16 plus years, it handles most all of our procurement needs. FPA has created special reports specifically for our needs and the support team is wonderful to work with."Barbarah Adams, Office ManagerBeasley Forest Products, Inc."I have been working with Automated Accounting Systems, Inc. and their Forest Products Accounting (FPA) software for the past 18 years through 3 different corporations. Their product is superior and the staff has always been professional and attentive to our needs. They are progressive and continue to look for efficiencies through evolving technologies. I am excited about our relationship going forward."Jim High, Controller Claybourn Walters Logging Co., Inc."We moved to Forest Products Accounting in 2012, coming from an in-house software that was very outdated. We looked at a few different software options and FPA was certainly the most inclusive. One of our main concerns was ongoing support for whatever solution we chose and the staff over at FPA has more than proven themselves in that area. The software itself is very user-friendly and intuitive. One can tell by working with it that it has been customized over many years to fit the needs of the end-users. Where our old system would take many, many months to train someone on, FPA can be taught in weeks. It has taken a large risk off of our company to have a system that is supported so well as this one. There is always someone just a phone call or email away to help with any issues that may arise and aside from being very knowledgeable about their software, each member of the support is specialized in other areas as well. Whether it’s an accounting question or technology question, or even a procedural issue, they seem to always have an easy solution. We are extremely happy with Forest Products Accounting and plan to use it exclusively from now on." Frank Camizzi, Assistant Controller S. A. Allen, Inc.

"We have worked with Automated Accounting since the beginning of the FPA system. We have seen many improvements over the years. The program meets all of our needs for accounting and reporting. It is easy to maneuver, which makes daily tasks easy. Automated Accounting's staff is knowledgeable in accounting, the timber industry and how their software works. The support staff is courteous and prompt to help us, should we have a question. As we have updated computers through the years, they have worked with our hardware installer to make sure the software is installed and working correctly to get us back up and running quickly. They have our respect as a top-notch software provider." Kay Geiger, Accounting Supervisor Sumter Timber Co., LLC"Based on the volume of settlements we produce every week, it would be unthinkable to wake up Monday morning without Automated Accounting Systems. The speed and accuracy they bring to the table is like having a staff of 10. Any business plan should include a relationship with Automated." Druanne Freeman, Secretary/Treasurer Palmetto Pulpwood and Timber"American Forest Management has been using the Forest Products Accounting system since 2007. One of the many features that drew us to FPA was the complete integration of the wood settlement/log yard modules to the general ledger and banking modules. The Automated Accounting team has always shown the flexibility and willingness to support reporting requests based on our client’s needs. We have added multiple mills to our ticket import functionality and that has been a tremendous time saver." Jennifer Mastrovito, Director of Client Accounting American Forest Management, Inc."We previously used a custom database that was not able to produce the management level reports and tracking system that we needed. FPA was recommended to us by others in the procurement industry. We have been using the system for over 4 years and it has met and exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend FPA to anyone in the forest industry." Larry Batchelor, Owner 360 Forest Products, Inc."When we went looking for a systems solution, this was the only package on the market that met our requirements. The flexibility built in to the system has provided advantages in tracking our production and costs, and support for the few issues that we have encountered has been more than satisfactory." Gary Stryz, IT and Data Entry 360 Forest Products, Inc."Forest Products Accounting has been supporting Suwannee Lumber Company since the year 2000. Their support team has always been very helpful and has always found a solution to our needs. We enjoy working with them and would recommend their system. We have other mills we work with that use their system as well. The staff is very friendly and patient. If you have to leave a voice mail due to high call volume they always get back with you and not forget. I have nothing bad to say about Forest Products Accounting." Karen Powers, Comptroller Suwannee Lumber Co., LLC
